  • What year?
  • Hi....I lived in building 6716, apt. A-7. I was in Muha from 1980-1983. We lived right across the street from the elementary school. They had roller skating in the gym on Fri, Sat, and Sun. It was such a new experience for me. I was only 10 when I moved there. My stepfather was stationed on Wackerheim..not too far from Mainz. I also went to Weisbaden American Middle School (WAMS)....does anyone remember that...
  • I loved there 79-81. I think that they have torn down my building because I can't find it on maps. Problem is--I don't remember our street address. It was near the elementary school, but on the corner of the entire housing area. There were three similar white buildings around three side of a square, and the fourth building had balconies. I remember walking to the German park to play miniature golf, or to the Hallenbad, or to the school to roller skate.
  • I left Mainz in 1976. We lived in Sandflora housing. THe Cain family
  • I lived there between 81-83" across for the DYA
  • What's up Dana? I lived in MUHA from 75- 78 my name is Michael Wilson and my siblings Adrian, Tracy, Cheryl and Pam. We lived one building down from you. I remember your brother Kevin as he played football and he wrestled. I lived across the hall from Mike and Pat Paige. We used to hang out a bit too along with Ronald McAlister, Andrew Velez, Lenny Smith and Mike Jackson to name a few. i will give you a call tomorrow.
  • I also have great memories of Muha. 86-89. I learned to speak English at this school. My ESL teacher was Mr Chaffin, Mrs Beareau was my 5 th grade teacher. I also went to Wiesbaden Middle School where I learned and fell in love with geography, Mr Dunn was an incredible teacher. We lived a good 30 -45 minutes away on an airfield and my father worked in a base with no dependents up the road. A wonderful experience it was . I am Kathy my sister is Gaby who lived in C -2
  • Hi Kathy -- I also had Mrs Barreau for fifth grade! I went 3rd - 6th grade at Mainz ES (1984 - 1988), then off to Wiesbaden for Middle and High School. - Jason Johnson (@JasonOxon)
